Reel for fishing

ABSTRACT

An operating member ( 6 ) having a shaft portion fitted with the lever ( 23 ) of a clutch operating mechanism is provided with a moving guide portion ( 6   b ) including an eccentric mating portion ( 6   a ) and an arcuate long hole. One end portion ( 7   a ) of an urging member ( 7 ) including a dead point spring is inserted into and mated with the moving guide portion ( 6   b ), whereas the other end portion ( 7   b ) is inserted into and mated with a hole 1 d  bored in a side frame ( 1   b ). The dead point exists on a line a connecting the center of the operating member ( 6 ) and the center of the other end portion ( 7   b ) of the urging member ( 7 ). In the winding condition of a fishline, the operating member ( 6 ) is pivoted clockwise and the one end portion of the urging member ( 7 ) is mated with the end of the clockwise direction within the moving guide portion ( 6   b ). In the playing-out condition of the fishline, the operating member ( 6 ) is pivoted counterclockwise and the one end portion ( 7   a ) of the operating member ( 7 ) is displaced to and mated with the end of the counterclockwise direction within the moving guide portion ( 6   b ).

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

1. Field of the Invention

This invention relates to an improved reel for fishing such that theurging force of an urging member deriving from dead point action isstrongly acted on an operating member during its operation.

2. Description of the Related Art

Heretofore, an urging member to which urging force is applied because ofa dead point action has been incorporated in a clutch operatingmechanism for switching on/off the coupling of the spool shaft of adouble-bearing type reel for fishing to a driving mechanism or abail-reversing mechanism in a spinning reel for fishing.

A clutch operating mechanism in a double-bearing type reel for fishingis turned on and off by actuating a clutch plate retaining a pinion thatis axially and movably fitted in a spool shaft by linearly or rotativelymoving a slide plate fitted with a cam and a clutch lever, and rotatinga handle. Such a clutch operating mechanism is also provided with anurging member between the slide plate as well as the clutch lever and areel frame.

As the distance of moving the clutch plate operated by the cam islimited in the clutch operating mechanism, it is difficult to haveurging force acted on strongly in the conventional urging mechanism. Ifthe handle is rotated with the inertia force at the time of casting aterminal tackle, the clutch operating mechanism tends to become easilyactuated, thus causing error resetting. If the urging force is actedstrongly by increasing the thickness of the spring material, theoperating force also unnecessarily increases, thus worsening theoperability.

In a bail reversing mechanism in a spinning reel for fishing, a bailsupporting member has a fishing guide portion in the forepart of thesupport arm of a rotor whose rotation is interlocked with the rotationfor winding of a handle. The bail supporting member is reversiblyassigned to one of the winding and playing-out conditions of a fishlineby urging and holding the bail supporting member with the urging member.When the fishline is played out to a predetermined point, a bail isreversed to the playing-out position and then a terminal tackle is sentin the distance by bringing down the fishline together with a fishingrod.

In order to prevent the error reset of the bail to the winding conditionof the fishline due to momentum or unnecessary rotation of the rotorduring the fishline playing-out operation, Japanese Utility ModelPublication No. 2780/1980, for example, discloses an adjusting memberfor adjusting the urging force of a bail so as to prevent the errorreset of the bail to the winding condition of the fishline during thefishline playing-out operation by increasing the holding force when thebail is reversed to the playing-out condition of the fishline. Further,there is a known arrangement as disclosed in Japanese Utility ModelPublication No. 43017/1992 wherein a bail is urged toward and held inthe playing-out position of a fishline by installing an urging spring onone side of a rotor supporting arm.

In the case of the former utility model, however, the constructionbecomes complicated and mounting the adjusting member on one side ofrotor supporting arm tends to deteriorate the rotative balance of therotor. Moreover, the fishline becomes easily entangled because theadjusting member protrudes from the surface of the rotor supporting arm.

The problem in this case is that when the bail is reversed to theplaying-out condition of the fishline, it becomes heavier to the extentthat the overall urging force has been increased and this results inlowering the operability.

In the latter case, due to an arrangement for deviating the urgingspring to one side of the rotor supporting arm, strongly urging andholding the bail in the playing-out position of the fishline isrestricted in consideration of the shape, size and the like of the rotorsupporting arm and the bail supporting member. Consequently, the problemof urging and holding the bail in the playing-out condition of thefishline still remains to be solved.

Thus, in the conventional mechanism for preventing the error resetting,problems making the arrangement complicated, deteriorating the rotativebalance of the rotor, allowing the fishline to become easily entangledbecause of the protrusion of the rotor supporting arm from the surface,and lowering the operability are included.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

In view of the foregoing drawbacks, an object of the present inventionis to provide a reel for fishing so as to have urging force acted onstrongly without increasing operating force with a simple constructionto ensure that error resetting is prevented.

To attain the above object, according to a first aspect of theinvention, there is provided a reel for fishing, including a movingguide portion which is provided on at least one of operating member andreel body sides and capable of displacing the end portion of an urgingmember so that the urging force of the urging member may be actedstrongly on the operating member for actuating one of linear androtating movements by the urging member to which urging force is appliedbeyond the dead point through one of the ON and OFF operations of theoperating member.

The reel for fishing may be constructed so that the operating member issupported so as to be capable of pivoting; the moving guide portion isin the form of a circular arc groove; and a regulating portion forregulating the movement of the end portion of the urging member isprovided on both sides of the circular arc groove.

According to a second aspect of the invention, there is provided a reelfor fishing wherein a bail supporting member has a moving guide portionin the forepart of the support arm of a rotor rotating in the wayinterlocked with the rotation of a handle so as to reversibly assign thebail supporting member to one of the winding and playing-out conditionsof a fishline by urging and holding the bail supporting member using aspring member. When the bail supporting member is reversed from thewinding condition of the fishline to the playing-out condition of thefishline, a moving guide portion is capable of displacing a rotorsupporting arm and the end portion of an urging member supported by thebail supporting member is provided to one of the rotor supporting armand the bail supporting member so that the urging force of the bailsupporting member may be acted on strongly.

According to a third aspect of the invention, there is provided a reelfor fishing wherein a bail supporting member having a moving guideportion in the forepart of the support arm of a rotor rotating in theway interlocked with the rotation of a handle so as to assign the bailsupporting member to one of the winding and playing-out conditions of afishline by urging and holding the bail supporting member using a springmember. When the bail supporting member is reversed from the windingcondition of the fishline to the playing-out condition of the fishline,a rotary pivot is provided to one of the bail supporting member and therotor supporting arm and that a moving guide portion is capable ofdiametrically displacing the rotary pivot to one of the rotor supportingarm and the bail supporting member.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described withreference to the drawings.

First Embodiment

FIGS. 1A-4 refer to a double-bearing type reel for fishing as a firstembodiment of the invention.

The reel body A of the double-bearing type reel for fishing is formedwith a side frame 1 and reel side plates 10 and 2. The left and rightside frames 1 a and 1 b of the side frame 1 are integrally held inparallel to each other by a plurality of pillars 11 and the fixed plate1 c of a reel leg 12, the reel side plates 10 and 2 being fitted to boththe respective side frames 1 a and 1 b.

Bearings 13 and 14 are provided to the respective side frames 1 a and 1b and a bearing 15 is provided to the reel side plate 2 so as to supporta spool shaft 3. A spool 16 fixed to the large diameter portion 3 a ofthe spool shaft 3 is rotatably provided between the left and right sideframes 1 a and 1 b.

A fishline 17 is wound on the outer periphery of the barrel portion ofthe spool 16. One left end of the spool shaft 3 is made to abut againsta thrust bearing 18, and so is the other end against a thrust bearing 20within an adjusting knob 19.

A pinion 4 is slidably fitted to the small diameter portion 3 b of thespool shaft 3 within the reel side plate 2. The projected mating portion3 c of the spool shaft 3 and the recessed clutch-engaging portion 4 a ofthe pinion 4 are brought into engagement and disengagement with eachother by a clutch plate 21, a slide plate 5, a coupling lever 22 and anoperating member 6 including a shaft portion fitted with a clutch lever23.

A driving gear 24 engages with the cog portion 4 b of the pinion 4 andis fitted to a handle shaft 25 in a whirl-stop fashion and preventedfrom slipping out in one single direction by a washer 26 press-fitted inthe handle shaft 25.

A peripheral groove 4 c is formed in the outer periphery of the pinion4, and the clutch plate 21 is mated therewith.

The clutch mechanism is formed with the recessed clutch-engaging portion4 a of the pinion 4 and the projected mating portion 3 c of the spoolshaft 3. The clutch operating mechanism includes the clutch plate 21 formoving the pinion 4, the slide plate 5, the coupling lever 22 and theoperating member 6 including the shaft portion fitted with a clutchlever 23, and an urging member 7 being a dead point spring.

The handle shaft 25 is supported by the bearing 27 of the side frame 1 band the bearing 28 of the reel side plate 2. A brake plate 29 is fittedto the outer periphery of the handle shaft 25 in the whirl-stop fashionon the right side of the washer 26. A friction plate 30, a ratchet 31and a friction plate 32 are rotatably fitted onto the left side of thedriving gear 24. Further, the friction plate 32 is fitted onto the rightside of the driving gear 24 simultaneously with a brake plate 33 andplate springs 34 and 34 fitted thereto in the whirl-stop fashion.

The cylindrical portion of a drag-adjusting knob 35 is screwed onto theouter periphery of the handle shaft 25 on the right side of the bearing28. When the drag adjusting knob 35 is pivoted, the friction plate 30,the ratchet 31, the friction plate 32, the brake plate 33 and the platesprings 34 and 34 are pressed against the side of the driving gear 24via the bearing 28 so as to regulate the braking force.

A handle 36 is fitted to the other end of the handle shaft 25 in thewhirl-stop fashion by screwing on a nut 37.

One end of a sound-producing member 38 formed with a plate spring isfixed to the side of the driving gear 24 and the other side of thesound-producing member 38 is made to face an uneven sound-producingportion 31 a formed on the side of the ratchet 31 set opposite to thedriving gear 24.

A reverse retaining pawl 41 held between plate springs 40 and 40 ispivotally supported by a shaft 42 outside the ratchet 31. The platesprings 40 and 40 hold both sides of the ratchet 31, and the leading endof the reverse retaining pawl 41 faces a retaining tooth 31 b formed onthe outer periphery of the ratchet 31 in such a manner as to be capableof engaging with the leading end thereof.

As shown in FIG. 2, a pin 43 for checking the pivoting of the reverseretaining pawl 41 is provided outside the reverse retaining pawl 41. Aplurality of kick pins 44 are fixed to the ratchet 31.

Both ends of the clutch plate 21 are respectively fitted to supports 45and 45 fixed to the side frame 1 b, the clutch plate 21 being urged by aspring (not shown) in the direction in which the projected matingportion 3 c of the spool shaft 3 engages with the recessedclutch-engaging portion 4 a of the pinion 4.

The clutch plate 21 is slid by the slide plate 5, which includes alateral long hole as a mating portion 5 a, cam-like operating portions 5b and 5 c for operating the clutch plate 21, forked extended leaves 5 dand 5 e, a bent mating portion 5 f, a long hole 5 g made in one extendedleaf 5 d, and a bent portion 5 h on one side of the extended leaf 5 d. Apin 46 fixed to the side frame 1 b is fitted in the long hole 5 g andthe pin 46 is further fitted in a long hole 8 a bored in a releasingleaf 8 which is stacked on the extended leaf 5 d.

A cutout portion 8 b and a spring hooking portion 8 c are formed in thereleasing leaf 8. One end of a spring 47 is hooked on the spring hookingportion 8 c, whereas the other end thereof is hooked on a pin 48 fixedto the side frame 1 b.

A retaining pin 49 is fixed to the side frame 1 b on the other side ofthe extended leaf 5 d and the releasing leaf 8.

As shown in FIG. 1B, the operating member 6 having the shaft portionfitted with the clutch lever 23 is pivotally supported by the reel sideplate 2, the clutch lever 23 being mounted on the operating member 6with a machine screw 50.

Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the operating member 6 is provided with aneccentric mating portion 6 a and the moving guide portion 6 b includingthe arcuate long groove. Simultaneously, the one end portion 7 a of theurging member 7 including the dead point spring is inserted into andmated with the moving guide portion 6 b, whereas the other end portion 7b is inserted into and mated with a hole 1 d bored in the side frame 1b.

As shown in FIG. 1B, the eccentric mating portion 6 a is shown so thatit may be inserted into the mating portion 5 a of the lateral long holeof the slide plate 5 for simplified illustration.

As shown in FIGS. 2-4, the coupling lever 22 is provided between theslide plate 5 and the operating member 6 and pivotally supported by theside frame 1 b with a shaft portion 51. Further, a long hole 22 a and abent mating portion 22 b are formed, so that the eccentric matingportion 6 a is inserted into the long hole 22 a. The mating portion 22 ais inserted into the mating portion 5 a of the lateral long hole of theslide plate 5.

The urging member 7 including the dead point spring is formed so thatthe wire may be wound in a ring fashion with the one end portion 7 a andthe other end portion 7 b being linearly extended.

As shown in FIGS. 2-4, the dead point exists on a line a connecting thecenter of the operating member 6 and the center of the other end portion7 b of the urging member 7. In the winding condition of the fishline ofFIG. 2, the operating member 6 is pivoted clockwise and the one endportion 7 a of the urging member 7 is mated with the end of theclockwise direction in the moving guide portion 6 b.

In the playing-out condition of the fishline of FIG. 3, the operatingmember 6 is pivoted counterclockwise and the one end portion 7 a of theurging member 7 is displaced to the end of the counterclockwisedirection in the moving guide portion 6 b.

In the playing-out condition of the fishline of FIG. 4, b represents aline connecting the centers of the one end portion 7 a and of the otherend portion 7 b of the urging member 7 shown by a solid line, and crepresents a line connecting the centers of the one end portion 7 a atthe end of the clockwise direction in the moving guide portion 6 b shownby the solid line (the position of the one end portion of theconventional urging member) and of the other end portion 7 b of theurging member 7 shown by a chain double-dashed line.

Given that the pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and b is α andthe pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and c is β, α>β isestablished. Providing the operating member 6 with the moving guideportion 6 b including the arcuate long groove causes a large pivotingangle to be secured as the one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 isdisplaced in the playing-out condition of the fishline, so that theurging force of the urging member 7 can be acted on strongly.

The operation of the double-bearing type reel for fishing will now bedescribed. When the handle 36 is rotated in the ON state of the clutchwhile the projected mating portion 3 c of the spool shaft 3 is engagingwith the recessed clutch-engaging portion 4 a of the pinion 4, thepinion 4 and the spool shaft 3 are rotated by the driving gear 24,whereby the fishline 17 is wound on the spool 16.

When the ratchet 31 in FIG. 2 is rotated clockwise via the driving gear24 and the friction plate 32 then, the friction between the ratchet 31and the plate springs 40 and 40 causes the plate springs 40 and 40 andthe reverse retaining pawl 41 to be pivoted counterclockwise. Then theleading end of the reverse retaining pawl 41 is separated from theretaining tooth 31 b of the ratchet 31, and the ratchet 31 is rotatedintegrally with the driving gear 24.

When the spool 16 is reversely rotated because of playing out thefishline 17, further, the driving gear 24 and the ratchet 31 are rotatedcounterclockwise and the plate springs 40 and 40 and the reverseretaining pawl 41 are pivoted clockwise. The leading end of the reverseretaining pawl 41 is retained by the retaining tooth 31 b of the ratchet31.

When the reverse retaining pawl 41 is thus retained, the ratchet 31comes to a standstill and only the driving gear 24 is rotated, wherebythe other end of the sound-producing member 38 with its one end fixed tothe driving gear 24 falls down from the projected side to the recessedside in the uneven sound-producing portion 31 a. Consequently, the soundis produced.

When the clutch lever 23 is pivoted downward counterclockwise as shownin FIGS. 3 and 4, the coupling lever 22 is pivoted clockwise by theeccentric mating portion 6 a of the operating member 6, and the slideplate 5 is slid downwardly to the right in the mating portions 22 a and5 a.

The sliding movement of the slide plate 5 causes the clutch plate 21 tomove up with the operating portions 5 b and 5 c, and the recessedclutch-engaging portion 4 a of the pinion 4 is brought intodisengagement with the projected mating portion 3 c of the spool shaft3. Consequently, the clutch is turned off and the spool 16 is set free.

As set forth above, the releasing leaf 8 restrained from pivoting by theretaining pin 49 and the bent portion 5 h is pivoted by the spring 47counterclockwise since the extended leaf 5 d is also slid downwardly tothe right when the slide plate 5 is thus slid. Therefore, the cutoutportion 8 b of the releasing leaf 8 is moved to a position where it canbe brought into contact with the kick pins 44.

When the handle 36 is rotated in the direction of winding the fishline,the driving gear 24 and the ratchet 31 in FIG. 3 are rotated clockwiseand the kick pins 44 are brought into contact with the cutout portion 8b of the releasing leaf 8 to push back the releasing leaf 8 to the left.Then the slide plate 5 is moved back as the left end of the releasingleaf 8 forces the bent mating portion 5 f of the slide plate 5 upward torelease the engagement of the operating portions 5 b and 5 c with theclutch plate 21, so that the clutch is turned on when the recessedclutch-engaging portion 4 a of the pinion 4 is brought into engagementwith the projected mating portion 3 c of the spool shaft 3.

When the handle 36 is rotated while the clutch is in the ON state, thespool 16 is rotated as the pinion 4 and the spool shaft 3 are rotated,whereby the fishline 17 is wound on the spool 16.

When the clutch lever 23 is pivoted clockwise while the clutch is in theOFF state, the slide plate 5 is slid upward by the operating member 6and the coupling lever 22, and the clutch is turned on.

Providing the operating member 6 with the moving guide portion 6 bincluding the arcuate long groove as described above causes a largepivoting angle to be secured as the one end portion 7 a of the urgingmember 7 including the dead point spring is displaced in the playing-outcondition of the fishline, so that the urging force of the urging member7 can be acted on strongly. Therefore, the slide plate 5 will beprevented from moving upward even though the rotational force is appliedto the handle 36 with the inertia force at the time of casting theterminal tackle.

As it is unnecessary to thicken the wire of the urging member 7, theoperability of the operating member 6 is never worsened becauseunnecessarily greater operating force is not required for the operatingmember 6.

With the double-bearing type reel for fishing thus arranged as describedabove, by providing the operating member 6 with the moving guide portion6 b including the arcuate long hole, a large pivoting angle can besecured as the one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 including thedead point spring is displaced in the playing-out condition of thefishline, so that the urging force of the urging member 7 can be actedon strongly with a simple construction. As it is unnecessary to thickenthe wire of the urging member 7, unnecessarily greater operating forceis not required for the operating member 6 to ensure that error reset ofthe clutch operating mechanism is made preventable.

Although the one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 has beendisplaced by the moving guide portion 6 b including the arcuate longgroove formed in the operating member 6 in the description given above,a moving guide portion including a long groove may be provided in theside frame 1 b so as to mate the other end portion 7 b with the movingguide portion.

Although it has been arranged that the clutch plate 21 provided in thecam-like operating portions 5 b and 5 c is operated and that the slideplate 5 is operated by the operating member 6 urged by the urging member7 in the description given above, cam-like operating portions and amoving guide portion including an arcuate long groove may be installedin a cylindrical portion so as to provide the urging member 7 betweenthe moving guide portion in the cylindrical portion and the side frame 1b.

Although the operating member 6 has been described as a member forcreating the linear or rotating movement of the clutch operatingmechanism of the double-bearing type reel for fishing, it may be anoperating member for operating switches and any other member of a reelincorporating an urging member to which the urging force is appliedbeyond the dead point.

Second Embodiment

FIGS. 5 to 6B show a spinning reel for fishing as a second embodiment ofthe invention.

In the spinning reel for fishing, a rotor 9 is fitted to a rotarycylindrical shaft 52 projecting from the front of a reel body A′, and aspool 16′ is fitted to a spool shaft 3′ which is passed through therotary cylindrical shaft 52 and projects from the front side of therotor 9.

The rotor 9 is rotated via a driving mechanism (not shown) when thehandle 36 is rotated and the spool 16′ is longitudinally reciprocatedvia an oscillating mechanism (not shown) when the handle 36 is rotated.

The rotor 9 is fitted to the rotary cylindrical shaft 52 with acylindrical portion 9 a and formed with a cylindrical portion 9 a, afront wall 9 b, a large-diameter cylindrical portion 9 c, and a pair ofsupport arms 9 d and 9 e projecting forward from the outer periphery ofthe base of the large-diameter cylindrical portion 9 c. Further,recessed portions 9 f and 9 g are formed in the respective support arms9 d and 9 e; stepped rotary pivots 9 h and 9 i are formed within therespective recessed portions 9 f and 9 g; and a colliding portion 9 j isformed within the recessed portion 9 f of the support arm 9 d.

Screw portions 9 k and 9 m are formed in the respective centers of therotary pivots 9 h and 9 i.

Bases 6 c and 6 d of an operating member 6′ including one bailsupporting member and an operating member 6″ including the other bailsupport member are pivotally secured on the outsides of the leading endportions of the pair of support arms 9 d and 9 e of the rotor 9 withscrews 53 and 54, a bail being reversible between the winding andplaying-out conditions of the fishline 17 as shown by a solid line and achain double-dashed line of FIG. 6, respectively.

A fishline guiding portion 55 including a line roller and a bailmounting portion 56 are fitted to the leading end portion of theoperating member 6′ including one bail supporting member.

A bail 57 integral with the bail mounting portion 56 is installedbetween the bail mounting portion 56 and the leading end portion of theoperating member 6″ including the other bail supporting member.

The outsides of the pair of support arms 9 d and 9 e are respectivelycovered with covers 58 and 59 and fixed with machine screws 60 and 61.

An abutment member 62 against which the operating member 6′ includingone bail supporting member abuts in the playing-out condition isprovided in such a manner as to project from the reel leg portion Aa ofthe reel body A′.

The bases 6 c and 6 d of the operating member 6′ including one bailsupporting member and the operating member 6″ including the other bailsupporting member are formed into a disk, and through-holes 6 e and 6 fare bored in the respective disks. The stepped rotary pivots 9 h and 9 iare fitted in the respective through-holes 6 e and 6 f and preventedfrom slipping out with the screws 53 and 54.

A moving guide portion 6 g including an arcuate long groove is bored inthe back of the base 6 c with a bumping projection 6 h projectingtherefrom.

The one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 being the dead pointspring is inserted into and mated with the moving guide portion 6 g,whereas the other end portion 7 b is inserted into and mated with a hole9 n bored in the support arm 9 d.

As shown in FIG. 6B, the dead point exists exits on a line a connectingthe center of the operating member 6′ including one bail supportingmember and the center of the other end portion 7 b of the urging member7.

In the winding condition of the fishline, the moving guide portion 6 g,which is shown by a broken line, of the operating member 6′ shown by asolid line is situated in the position of the broken line on the rightside of the base 6 c, and the one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7shown by the broken line is mated with the end of the counterclockwisedirection of the moving guide portion 6 g.

In the playing-out condition of the fishline, the moving guide portion 6g of the operating member 6′ shown by the chain double-dashed line issituated in the position of the chain double-dashed line on the leftside of the base 6 c of the moving guide portion 6 g, and the one endportion 7 a of the urging member 7 shown by the chain double-dashed lineis displaced to and mated with the end of the clockwise direction of themoving guide portion 6 g.

In the playing-out condition of the fishline of FIG. 6B, d represents aline connecting the centers of the one end portion 7 a and the other endportion 7 b of the urging member 7 shown by the chain double-dashedline, and e represents a line connecting the centers of the one endportion 7 a (the position of the one end portion of the conventionalurging member) at the end of the counterclockwise direction of themoving guide portion 6 g shown by the chain double-dashed line and ofthe other end portion 7 b of the urging member 7.

Given that the pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and d is γ andthe pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and e is δ, γ>δ isestablished. Providing the operating member 6′ with the moving guideportion 6 g including the arcuate long groove causes a large pivotingangle to be secured as the one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7including the dead point spring is displaced in the playing-outcondition of the fishline, so that the urging force of the urging member7 can be acted on strongly.

The operation of the spinning reel for fishing will now be described.When the handle 36 is rotated in the winding condition of the fishline,the rotor 9 is rotated, whereby the fishline 17 is wound on the spool16′.

When the winding condition of the fishline is switched to theplaying-out condition of the fishline, the bail 57 is manually set up.

When the reel is swung downward with great force in order to cast theterminal tackle (not shown) in the playing-out condition of thefishline, the fishline 17 is played out of the spool 16′.

In order to reverse the bail 57 from the playing-out condition of thefishline to the winding condition of the fishline, the rotor 9 isrotated by the handle 36 and the operating member 6′ including the onebail supporting member abuts against the abutment member 62.

As set forth above, by providing the moving guide portion 6 g includingthe arcuate long groove in the back of the base 6 c of the operatingmember 6′ including the one bail supporting member, a large pivotingangle can be secured as the one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7including the dead point spring is displaced in the playing-outcondition of the fishline, so that the urging force of the urging member7 can be acted on strongly. Consequently, the bail 57 in the playing-outcondition of the fishline is restrained from being reversed to thewinding condition of the fishline even when the rotational force isapplied to the handle 36 with the inertia force at the time of castingthe terminal tackle.

As it is unnecessary to thicken the wire of the urging member 7, theoperability of the operating member 6′ is never worsened becauseunnecessarily greater operating force is not required for the operatingmember 6′.

Moreover, the shaking off of the bail 57 because of the inertia force isalso prevented at the time casting the terminal tackle.

With the spinning reel for fishing thus arranged as described above, theoperating member 6′ including the one bail supporting member is providedwith the moving guide portion 6 g including the arcuate long groovewhereby to secure a large pivoting angle in the playing-out condition ofthe fishline by displacing the one end portion 7 a of the urging member7 including the dead point spring, so that the urging force of theurging member 7 can be acted on strongly with a simple construction. Itis thus ensured to prevent not only error resets of the operatingmembers 6′ and 6″ respectively including the bail supporting membersbecause of the rotational force applied to the handle 36 with theinertia force at the time of casting the terminal tackle but also theshaking off of the bail 57 because of the inertia force.

Moreover, the operating force of the operating member 6′ is notunnecessarily increased and the operability thereof is kept from beingworsened because the wire of the urging member 7 need not be thickened.

Given that the pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and j is γ″ andthe pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and k is δ″, γ″>ace isestablished. Forming the oval moving guide portion 6 k including thecentral through-hole 6 e and the through-hole continuously connectedtogether in the operating member 6′ including the one bail supportingmember causes a large pivoting angle to be secured as the end portion 7a of the urging member 7 is displaced in the playing-out condition ofthe fishline, so that the urging force of the urging member 7 can beacted on strongly.

With the spinning reel for fishing thus arranged according to the fifthembodiment, the operating member 6′ including the one bail supportingmember is provided with the moving guide portion 6 k including thethrough-hole continuously connected to the central through-hole 6 e incombination of the rotary pivot 9 h whereby to secure a large pivotingangle in the playing-out condition of the fishline by displacing the oneend portion 7 a of the urging member 7 including the dead point spring.In addition, the urging force of the urging member 7 can be acted onstrongly with a simple construction.

Forming the oval moving guide portion 9 q including thecentral through-hole 9 p and the through-hole continuously connectedtogether in the operating member 6′ including the one bail supportingmember toward the left front causes a large pivoting angle to be securedas the end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 is displaced in theplaying-out condition of the fishline, so that the urging force of theurging member 7 can be acted on strongly.

Seventh Embodiment

A description will be given of a seventh embodiment of the inventionwith reference to FIGS. 15A-16.

According to the seventh embodiment, the base 6 c of the operatingmember 6′ including the one bail supporting member is formed into adisk, and a moving guide portion 6 n including a large-diameterthrough-hole is formed in an eccentric position from the center of thebase 6 c, recessed portions 60 and 6 p being respectively formed in twoplaces in the inner periphery thereof.

Given that the pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and j is γ″ andthe pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and k is δ′, γ″>δ″ isestablished. Forming the moving guide portion 6 n including thelarge-diameter through-hole of the operating member 6′ including the onebail supporting member causes a large pivoting angle to be secured asthe end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 is displaced in theplaying-out condition of the fishline, so that the urging force of theurging member 7 can be acted on strongly.

The long groove formed as the moving guide portion in the descriptiongiven in the preceding embodiments may be replaced with a slot.

Eighth Embodiment

A description will be given of an eighth embodiment of the inventionwith reference to FIGS. 17-18F.

A moving guide portion 60 including a substantially semicircular arcgroove which projects toward the rotary shaft core of the operatingmember 6′ and diametrically opened outward is bored in the back of thebase 6 c of the operating member 6′ including the one bail supportingmember. Regulating portions 6 p and 6 q are so formed as to project intothe groove on the respective sides of the moving guide portion 6 o, andthe bumping projection 6 h is projected from the back of the base 6 c.

The one end portion 7 a of the urging member 7 including the dead pointspring is inserted into and mated with the moving guide portion 6 o,whereas the other end portion 7 b is inserted into and mated with thehole 9 n bored in the support arm 9 d.

The rest of the arrangement is substantially similar to what has beenmade in the second embodiment.

As shown in FIG. 17, the dead point exists on a line a connecting thecenter of the operating member 6′ including the one bail supportingmember and the center of the other end portion 7 b of the urging member7.

The moving guide portion 6 o, which is shown by a broken line, of theoperating member 6′ shown by a solid line is situated in the position ofthe broken line on the right side of the base 6 c in the windingcondition of the fishline, and the one end portion 7 a of the urgingmember 7 shown by the broken line is mated with the end of thecounterclockwise direction of the moving guide portion 6 o.

The moving guide portion 6 g of the operating member 6′ shown by a chaindouble-dashed line is situated in the position of the chaindouble-dashed line on the left side of the base 6 c of the moving guideportion 6 o in the playing-out condition of the fishline, and the oneend portion 7 a of the urging member 7 shown by the chain double-dashedline is displaced to and mated with the end of the clockwise directionof the moving guide portion 6 o.

In the playing-out condition of the fishline of FIG. 17, d represents aline connecting the centers of the one end portion 7 a and the other endportion 7 b of the urging member 7 shown by the chain double-dashedline, and e represents a line connecting the centers of the one endportion 7 a (the position of the one end portion of the conventionalurging member) at the end of the counterclockwise direction of themoving guide portion 6 o shown by the chain double-dashed line and ofthe other end portion 7 b of the urging member 7.

Given that the pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and d is γ andthe pivoting angle of the connecting lines a and e is δ, γ>δ isestablished. Providing the moving guide portion 6 o including thesubstantially semicircular arc groove to the operating member 6′ causesa large pivoting angle to be secured as the one end portion 7 a of theurging member 7 including the dead point spring is displaced in theplaying-out condition of the fishline, so that the urging force of theurging member 7 can be acted on strongly.

The operation of the operating member 6′ including the one bailsupporting member is such that when the winding condition of thefishline shown in FIG. 18A is switched to the playing-out condition ofthe fishline shown in FIG. 18D, the bail 57 is set up by the hand, sothat the one end portion 7 a is switched to the playing-out condition ofthe fishline of FIG. 18D via the conditions of FIGS. 18B and 18C.

When the operating member 6′ including the one bail supporting member isreversed from the playing-out condition of the fishline shown in FIG.18D to the winding condition of the fishline shown in FIG. 18A, therotor 9 is rotated by the handle 36, and the operating member 6′including the one bail supporting member abuts against the abutmentmember 58 before being reversed, so that the one end portion 7 a isreversed from the playing-out condition of the fishline of FIG. 18D tothe winding condition of the fishline of FIG. 18A via the conditions ofFIGS. 18E and 18F.

When the aforementioned switching and reversion occurs, the one endportion 7 a will not move simultaneously with the pivoting of theoperating member 6′ including the one bail supporting member since ithas been controlled by the regulating portions 6 p and 6 q on both sidesof the moving guide portion 6 o but will start moving after theoperating member 6′ including the bail supporting member is pivoted by apredetermined amount.

As set forth above, providing the back of the base 6 c of the operatingmember 6′ including the bail supporting member with the moving guideportion 6 o including the substantially semicircular arc groove causes alarge pivoting angle to be secured as the one end portion 7 a of theurging member 7 including the dead point spring is displaced in theplaying-out condition of the fishline, so that the urging force of theurging member 7 can be acted on strongly. Consequently, the bail 57 inthe playing-out condition of the fishline is restrained from beingreversed to the winding condition of the fishline even when therotational force is applied to the handle 36 with the inertia force atthe time of casting the terminal tackle.

The operating force of the operating member 6′ is not unnecessarilyincreased and the operability thereof is kept from being worsenedbecause the wire of the urging member 7 need not be thickened.

Moreover, the shaking off of the bail 57 is prevented because of theinertia force at the time of casting the terminal tackle.

Since the regulating portions 6 p and 6 q on the respective sides of themoving guide portion 60 make the one end portion 7 a of the urgingmember 7 start moving after the operating member 6′ including the onebail supporting member is pivoted by a predetermined amount, the bail 57is restrained from being reversed with the inertia force, an impact orthe like.

With the spinning reel for fishing thus arranged as described above, theoperating member 6′ including the one bail supporting member is providedwith the moving guide portion 60 including the substantiallysemicircular arc groove whereby to secure a large pivoting angle in theplaying-out condition of the fishline by displacing the one end portion7 a of the urging member 7 including the dead point spring, so that theurging force of the urging member 7 can be acted on strongly with asimple construction. It is thus ensured to prevent not only error resetsof the operating members 6′ and 6″ respectively including the bailsupporting members because of the rotational force applied to the handle36 with the inertia force at the time of casting the terminal tackle butalso the shaking off of the bail 57 because of the inertia force.

Further, the operating force of the operating member 6′ is notunnecessarily increased and the operability thereof is kept from beingworsened because the wire of the urging member 7 need not be thickened.

Moreover, since the regulating portions 6 p and 6 q on the respectivesides of the moving guide portion 6 o make the one end portion 7 a ofthe urging member 7 start moving after the operating member 6′ includingthe one bail supporting member is pivoted by a predetermined amount, thebail 57 is restrained from being reversed with the inertia force, animpact or the like.

The present invention is implemented in the mode as set forth above andhas the following effects.

Firstly, the operating member is provided with the moving guide portionincluding the arcuate long hole whereby to secure a large pivoting anglein the playing-out condition of the fishline by displacing one endportion of an urging member including the dead point spring, so that theurging force of the urging member can be acted on strongly with a simpleconstruction. Thus, the operating force of the operating member is notunnecessarily increased because the wire of the urging member need notbe thickened to ensure that error reset of a clutch operating mechanismis made preventable.

Second, the operating member 6′ including one bail supporting member isprovided with the moving guide portion 6g including the arcuate longhole whereby to secure a large pivoting angle in the playing-outcondition of the fishline by displacing the one end portion of theurging member including the dead point spring, so that the urging forceof the urging member can be acted on strongly with a simpleconstruction. It is thus ensured to prevent not only error resets of theoperating members respectively including bail supporting members becauseof the rotational force applied to the handle with the inertia force atthe time of casting a terminal tackle but also the shaking off of thebail because of the inertia force.

Moreover, the operating force of the operating member is notunnecessarily increased and the operability thereof is kept from beingworsened because the wire of the urging member need not be thickened.

Third, the operating member including the one bail supporting member isprovided with the moving guide portion including the through-holecontinuously connected to the central through-hole in combination of therotary pivot whereby to secure a large pivoting angle in the playing-outcondition of the fishline by displacing the one end portion of theurging member including the dead point spring, so that the urging forceof the urging member can be acted on strongly with a simpleconstruction. It is thus ensured to prevent not only error resets of theoperating members respectively including the bail supporting membersbecause of the rotational force applied to the handle with the inertiaforce at the time of casting the terminal tackle but also the shakingoff of the bail because of the inertia force.

As it is unnecessary to thicken the wire of the urging member, theoperability of the operating member is never worsened becauseunnecessarily greater operating force is not required for the operatingmember.

Fourth, providing the moving guide portion including the substantiallysemicircular arc groove to the operating member causes a large pivotingangle to be secured as the one end portion of the urging memberincluding the dead point spring is displaced in the playing-outcondition of the fishline, so that the urging force of the urging membercan be acted on strongly with a simple construction. It is thus ensuredto prevent not only error resets of the operating members respectivelyincluding the bail supporting members because of the rotational forceapplied to the handle with the inertia force at the time of casting theterminal tackle but also the shaking off of the bail because of theinertia force.

As it is unnecessary to thicken the wire of the urging member, theoperability of the operating member is never worsened becauseunnecessarily greater operating force is not required for the operatingmember.

Moreover, since the regulating portions on the respective sides of themoving guide portion make the one end portion of the urging member startmoving after the operating member including the one bail supportingmember is pivoted by a predetermined amount, the bail is restrained frombeing reversed with the inertia force, an impact or the like.
